6.3	Understanding of the Parties

On the basis of the warranties in clause 6.2, the Parties understand that any supply made or to be made by Invetech under or in connection this Agreement is GST-free in accordance with Subdivision 38-E of the GST Act.

6.4	Gross up of consideration

Despite any other provision in this Agreement, including clause 6.2 and clause 6.3, if Invetech makes a supply under or in connection with this Agreement on which GST is imposed (not being a supply the consideration for which is specifically described in this Agreement as GST inclusive):

(a)

the consideration payable or to be provided for that supply under this Agreement but for the application of this clause (GST exclusive consideration) is increased by, and Argos must also pay to Invetech an amount equal to the GST exclusive consideration multiplied by the prevailing rate of GST at the time the supply is made; and

(b)	subject to clause 6.6, the amount by which the GST exclusive consideration is increased must be paid to Invetech by Argos without set off, deduction or requirement for demand, at the same time as the GST exclusive consideration is payable or to be provided.

6.5	Reimbursements (net down)

If a payment to a Party under this Agreement is a reimbursement or indemnification, calculated by reference to a loss, cost or expense incurred by that Party, then the payment will be reduced by the amount of any input tax credit to which that Party is entitled for an acquisition to which that loss, cost or expense relates.

6.6	Argos Warranty

If GST is payable by Invetech in relation to a supply and the consideration for that supply was not increased under clause 6.4 as the Parties mistakenly consider the supply to be GST-free, Argos will pay the amount by which the GST exclusive consideration is increased on account of GST under 6.4(a) (provided that any interest or penalty imposed by the Commissioner of Taxation on Invetech shall be borne by Invetech except to the extent that such interest or penalty arises as a result of any breach by Argos of the warranties under clause 6.2, or as a result of any other matter within Argos' control if Invetech has notified Argos of the required action in writing giving Argos reasonably adequate time to take the required action or Argos knows the required action) within [**] days of receiving a notice in writing from Invetech to do so.

7.	Replication Arrangement

On Completion of the Development and on the terms and conditions to be negotiated in good faith by the parties as soon as practicable (Replication Arrangement):

(a)

Argos will exclusively acquire, and Invetech will supply, Production Systems, components, subsystems and spare parts to the value of USD25 million. For clarification, under this Development Agreement, Argos will purchase for comparability testing and possible commercial manufacturing, one Production System consisting of one each of the following seven pieces of equipment: i) Pebbles, ii) Xxxxx XX, iii) Plasma, iv) Monocyte Isolation and Culture, v) TIP, vi) Electroporation and vii) Formulation. The total cost of any subsequent purchases of the foregoing equipment or components thereof will be applied towards the USD25 million that Argos must spend under the Replication Arrangement.

(b)

After Argos has acquired from Invetech, under the Replication Arrangement, Production Systems, components, subsystems and spare parts to the value of USD25 million, Argos will have the right to approach alternate automation providers for a competitive quote for the supply of Production Systems. Should this quoting process deliver a quoted price less than Invetech’s supply price on substantially the same or better terms, Invetech will have a right of first refusal to match the reduced price and terms. If Invetech is unwilling to match this reduced price and terms, then Argos will have the right to source Production Systems from the competitive supplier.

8.	Intellectual property rights

(a)	Argos shall retain ownership of any Argos Intellectual Property. Invetech shall retain ownership of any Invetech Intellectual Property.

(b)

Invetech shall promptly notify Argos in writing upon Invetech’s conception of any Intellectual Property that is created as a direct result of undertaking the Program (such rights being referred to as the Program Intellectual Property). Subject to clause (a) and provided that Argos has paid to Invetech all outstanding fees and charges due to Invetech in connection with the Services attributable to the conception of such Program Intellectual Property other than the Deferred Fees, Invetech agrees to and does hereby assign to Argos all of Invetech’s right, title and interest in and to the Program Intellectual Property and Invetech will (at Argos' request and cost) do those things reasonably necessary to effect the registration of such assignment.

Argos must, on request by Invetech from time to time, provide to Invetech full details (including copies of all relevant documentation) of any application for registration (whether as a registered patent, a registered design or otherwise) of the Program Intellectual Property or any part of it. All such information shall constitute Confidential Information of Argos.

If, during the term of this Agreement, Invetech becomes aware that the Program Works may lead to a possible infringement of any third party's Intellectual Property rights, it will promptly so notify Argos’ in house counsel orally and both parties will cooperate (at Argos' expense) in order to circumvent any risk arising from such situation. Invetech represents and warrants that at the time of assignment of any portion of the Program Intellectual Property to Argos, such assigned Program Intellectual Property shall not, to the best of Invetech's knowledge at the time of assignment, infringe upon any intellectual property right of any third party unless such third party intellectual property is specifically disclosed to Argos at or prior to the time of assignment.

Invetech will, to the extent defined in relevant Proposals (prepared by Invetech jointly with Argos) and at Argos' expense, provide assistance to carry out searches in relation to the Program in order to identify potential infringements of prior patents and pending applications or design registrations. Where no such request is made and agreed in writing by Invetech or the search requested by Argos is inadequate to identify relevant matters, Argos is deemed to have assumed responsibility for these matters. Invetech will use reasonably diligent efforts to notify Argos if it considers that the search requested by Argos is inadequate to identify relevant matters.

(c)	Argos grants to Invetech a worldwide, royalty-free licence to use the Argos Intellectual Property only to the extent necessary to allow Invetech to perform its obligations under this Agreement (Argos IP Licence).

(d)

(e)

Subject to paragraphs (f), (g) and (i), Argos grants to Invetech a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, worldwide licence to use and improve (including the right to sublicense) the Program Intellectual Property created by Invetech for any purpose that does not involve cell-based immunotherapy or the use of dendritic cells (Program IP Licence); provided, however that the restriction on cell-based immunotherapy or the use of dendritic cells shall not apply to Program Intellectual Property conceived after the Effective Date to the extent Invetech terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 17.2(d)(i) for Argos’ failure to make payments required pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Program IP License does not include a license under Program Intellectual Property that Argos maintains as a trade secret under applicable law.

(f)

Invetech's right to use any Specialist Program Intellectual Property (other than for the purposes of this Agreement) is subject to mutual written agreement of the parties, such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld. For clarification but without limitation, Argos may require advance review of any proposed use and may reasonably withhold its consent from (A) any use that relates to the discovery, development or production of drugs, vaccines or other products for the treatment of diseases, disorders or transplantation rejection, or (B) any use that would cause Argos to violate a third party agreement.

(g)	Nothing in clause 8(f) shall be deemed to authorize Invetech to, and Invetech hereby agrees that it will not:

(i)	means of detecting fluid presence by ultra-sonic or optical detection using refraction and reflection techniques to measure the volume removed from a cuvette by detecting when it is empty for nucleic acid processing.

(i)

With respect to any sublicense or other arrangement whereby Invetech makes available to any Affiliate or third party any Module or Subsystem that includes Specialist Program Intellectual Property or any Specialist Program Intellectual Property whether pursuant to clause 8(h) or otherwise, Invetech shall (1) provide Argos with a copy of any agreement granting such rights or making such Module, Subsystem and/or Specialist Program Intellectual Property available; and (2) include in any such agreement express use limitations consistent with this agreement and provisions that grant Argos the unrestricted right to enforce such limitations directly against the Affiliate or third party.

(j)

The parties acknowledge that they have a shared community of legal interest in the development of a Production System that can be manufactured, used, sold and otherwise commercialized without infringing the intellectual property rights of any third party. The parties may exchange confidential attorney-client communications to advance certain common legal interests in accordance with this Agreement, and shall not disclose such communications to a third party, nor to employees of either party who do not have a need to know the content of such communication.

In relation to Non-excludable Obligations (other than a guarantee as to title, encumbrances or quiet possession conferred by the Australian Consumer Law), except for goods or services of a kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use or consumption (in respect of which Invetech's liability is not limited under this Agreement), Invetech's liability to Argos for a failure to comply with any Non excludable Obligation is limited to:

(i)	in the case of services, the cost of supplying the services again or payment of the cost of having the services supplied again; and

(ii)	in the case of goods, the cost of replacing the goods, supplying equivalent goods or having the goods repaired, or payment of the cost of replacing the goods, supplying equivalent goods or having the goods repaired.

14.3	Limited Liability

(a)

With the exception of claims of infringement of any Invetech Intellectual Property rights made by a third party, or Invetech’s breach of its obligations under Section 9, and without limiting the warranties given by Invetech in clause 13.1 and Argos’ remedies for breaches thereof, the Parties agree that Invetech has no liability regarding any Production System or any Prototype (including but not limited to manufacture, use or operation of any Production System or any Prototype), except to the extent caused by Invetech's negligence or deliberate wrongful acts and omissions. For the avoidance of doubt and without limiting the foregoing in this clause (a), Invetech has no liability:

(i)	in relation to a design defect, where Invetech has, prior to Completion of the Development, identified and notified in writing to Argos, the existence and nature of that design defect;

(ii)	in relation to a design defect or operating conditions which were not the subject of a specific test program which formed part of the Program Works, except where Invetech was aware of the existence of that design defect; or

(iii)

in relation to a design defect that was not detectable or likely to be detected within the scope or duration of testing undertaken as part of the Program Works.

(b)	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject to clause 14.3(e), absent fraud or intentional misconduct, each Party's total cumulative liability to the other Party under or in any way connected with this Agreement (including liability for negligence) is limited to the lesser of:

(i)	the total of the fees, expenses and costs paid or payable by Argos under this Agreement under Argos' authorised Proposals; or

(ii)	USD10,000,000.

(c)	Argos' obligation to make payments to Invetech under clause 4 (Terms of payment) or clause 5 (Deferred Fees) is not to be accounted towards Argos' total cumulative liability for the purpose of clause 14.3(b).

(d)	No Party will be liable for any loss of profits, loss of business, loss of goodwill or any indirect or consequential damages however arising.

(e)	This Clause 14.3 does not apply to Argos' obligation to indemnify Invetech under clause 15(a)(i), 15(a)(ii) and 15(a)(iii) or Invetech’s obligation to indemnify Argos pursuant to Section 15(b)(iii) for claims brought by third parties.

15.

Indemnity

(a)	Argos indemnifies Invetech against all losses, claims, proceedings, damages, costs and expenses (Losses) in respect of or arising directly from:

(i)	any Production System, any Prototypes or their use or operation by Argos or any person other than Invetech that is authorized by Argos to use or operate such Production System or Prototype;

(ii)	the use by any person other than Invetech of any system, design, process or procedure recommended, developed or devised by Invetech for or on behalf of Argos;

(iii)

any defect or deficiency in, or hazardous aspect of, any Argos Program Input; or

(iv)	any breach by Argos of any of its obligations under this Agreement;

(v)	the negligence of Argos, its Affiliates and their respective employees, agents or contractors.

(b)	Invetech indemnifies Argos against all Losses to the extent arising directly from:

(i)	a breach of this Agreement by Invetech;

(ii)	the negligence of Invetech, its Affiliates and their respective employees, agents or contractors in the course of work on this Program;

(iii)

the Gross Negligence or wilful misconduct of Invetech, its Affiliates and their respective employees, agents or contractors;

(iv)

any third party claim alleging that the Production System or Invetech's services hereunder involve the misuse by Invetech of such third party's confidential information (except to the extent that such claim is based on information provided by Argos) or that the exercise by Argos of the Invetech IP License infringes the intellectual property rights of a third party.

(c)	Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither party shall have any obligation to indemnify the other party for any Losses to the extent those Losses are attributable to the other party's Gross Negligence or wilful misconduct.

(d)	Each party must take reasonable steps to mitigate any Losses for which it seeks to be indemnified under this clause 15.

16.

Insurance

Argos and Invetech each agree to take out and maintain reasonably prudent employee, product, public liability and other insurance policies consistent with good business practice and will produce evidence of current insurance arrangements to the other Party at any time on request.

17.	Term and termination

17.1

Term

Unless terminated under clause 17.2, this Agreement commences on the Effective Date and continues until Completion of the Program (whereupon it will automatically terminate subject to clause 17.4).

17.2	Grounds for Termination

This Agreement may be terminated:

(a)	at any time with immediate effect by mutual written agreement of the Parties;

(b)	by deemed mutual agreement of the Parties:

(i)	upon the occurrence of Technical Failure; or

(ii)

where, in spite of both Parties' reasonable commercial efforts, sixty (60) days has elapsed since submission of a Proposal for the next Development Stage with no authorisation of that or any further Proposal for additional Program Works being received (except that this 60 day period may be extended by written agreement between the Parties until Completion of the last Development Stage outstanding under a Proposal which remains current and incomplete at expiration of any such 60 day period); or

(iii)

if either Party forms the view (and notifies the other Party in writing) that intellectual property or regulatory constraints or commercial considerations prevent the viable commercialization of the Production Systems, notwithstanding the achievement of technical feasibility. The Party claiming that such circumstances apply must provide to the other Party a detailed description of such circumstances and the potential reasons why they cannot be overcome.

(each constituting a Deemed Termination);

(c)	by Argos at any time without cause by giving notice in writing to Invetech (Termination for Convenience)

(d)	by notice in writing from the non defaulting Party:

(i)

if a material breach of any material provision of this Agreement, being capable of remedy, is not remedied to the reasonable satisfaction of the non defaulting Party within [**] days of receipt by the defaulting Party of a notice from the non defaulting Party setting out the nature of the breach and requiring the breach to be remedied and a subsequent good faith discussion (or attempt to hold same on the part of the non defaulting Party) between the parties has failed to otherwise resolve the matter;

(ii)

if an application (including any voluntary application) is made to any court for an order or an order is made that the other Party be wound up or liquidated or that a liquidator or provisional liquidator be appointed and that application is not withdrawn or dismissed within one hundred and twenty (120) days;

(iii)

if a trustee in bankruptcy, liquidator or provisional liquidator is appointed in respect of the other Party;

(iv)	if a trustee in bankruptcy, receiver or receiver and manager (or similar insolvency administrator) is appointed to any of the assets or undertaking of the other Party and that appointment is not terminated within sixty (60) days;

(v)	if the other Party enters into a scheme of arrangement, plan of reorganisation or composition with all or a significant class of its creditors, or;

(vi)	if the other Party ceases carrying on business or admits in writing that:

(A)	it is unable to pay its debts as and when they fall due; or

(B)	it intends to cease carrying on its business for any reason,

(each being a Default Termination).

17.3	Consequences of Termination

(a)	On termination of this Agreement for any reason:

(i)	both Parties, acting through the Coordination Committee, shall discuss in good faith whatever measures are reasonably necessary (i) to complete the Development Stage then being conducted and (ii) to mitigate the cost to each Party of the Termination;

(ii)

both Parties agree, as soon as possible, to return, destroy and certify in writing the destruction of, or destroy and permit the other Party to witness the destruction of all Confidential Information of the other Party in the possession or control of that Party and its employees and any person to whom that Party has disclosed all or any of the Confidential Information of the other Party (whether or not with the consent of the other Party) (with the exception of archival copies held on back-up media and one (1) copy if needed to be retained for insurance or record purposes and retention of such Confidential Information as is contemplated by and for the period of any licences that are conferred and will continue under this Agreement despite termination);

(iii)

both Parties agree, as soon as possible, to pay all amounts due and payable to the other Party under this Agreement. In the case of Argos, this includes payment by Argos of all outstanding invoices and payment for all work performed and expenses incurred up to the date of termination and payment of all Deferred Fees, together with all interest accrued in accordance with clause 5.2;

(iv)	the Invetech IP Licence shall remain in force on the same conditions as provided under clause 8(d) hereof, unless Argos otherwise notifies Invetech in writing; and

(v)	subject to payment by Argos of:

(A)	all outstanding invoices and payment for all work properly performed and expenses properly incurred up to the date of termination;

(B)	all Deferred Fees, together with all interest accrued in accordance with clause 5.2, if applicable; and

(C)	any other payments that have become payable under this Agreement prior to the effective date of termination,

Invetech will transfer to Argos, as soon as practically feasible, and in any event no later than [**] days following the effective date of termination, (i) the Production System or the Prototype (if and as applicable) (ii) the Equipment, (iii) the Program Intellectual Property created in the course of the Development Stage during which termination has occurred, and any Program Intellectual Property created in the course of any prior Development Stage to the extent not previously delivered for which full payment has been received by Invetech, together with any and all relevant engineering and/or manufacturing documentation relating to the Program then in the possession of Invetech and, during such sixty-day period, provide such other services as Argos may reasonably request associated with the orderly wind down of the Program or any applicable Development Stage. Argos will meet Invetech's costs and expenses in preparing, packaging and transferring the items set out in this paragraph and performing any other services required under this paragraph.

(b)	On termination of this Agreement for any reason other than Default Termination caused by Invetech, Argos will pay to Invetech an amount calculated as:

(i)	the average of monthly invoice amounts for the then current Development Stage(s); or

(ii)	if, at the time of termination, there is no current Development Stage or there have been no monthly invoices under the current Development Stage(s), the average of monthly invoice amounts during the immediately preceding six month period.

This amount shall be applied against (but not in any way limiting) any fees associated with transfer to Argos under clause (a)(v).

18.	Dispute resolution

(c)	if, despite this, any dispute remains unresolved for a further [**] days it will immediately be submitted to the Chief Executive Officer of Invetech and the Chief Executive Officer of Argos (or their nominees) for resolution;

(d)

if, despite this, any such Dispute remains unresolved after a further [**] days (or such longer period agreed by the Parties in writing), either party may by written notice refer the matter to arbitration in which case it will be resolved by an arbitrator agreed by the Parties or, failing agreement within [**] days, by an arbitrator appointed for this purpose by the Institute of Arbitrators and Mediators, Australia in Melbourne, Australia if the arbitration is initiated by Argos or by an arbitrator appointed by the American Arbitration Association in North Carolina if the arbitration is initiated by Invetech.

(f)

the appointment will require the arbitrator to use his or her best endeavours to certify in writing to Argos and Invetech the determination that has been made within [**] days of the appointment and any costs associated with any such referral and determination will be paid by Invetech and Argos in equal shares unless the expert considers one party to have been vexatious or frivolous in which case that party shall pay all of those costs.

The rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement do not merge on completion of any transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

21.12

21.13

Except where this Agreement expressly states otherwise, it does not create a relationship of employment, trust, agency or partnership between the Parties.
